Nikola Pajkovsky	32b4e1ca1d	sec_mem: add note about the perf implications ... Testing secure storage for ml-kem/dsa [1] shows performace penalty when secure storage is enabled. | Threads | baseline usec/handshake | secmem usec/handshake | |---------+-------------------------+-----------------------| | 1 | 586.784756 | 588.306131 | | 2 | 599.537648 | 601.007393 | | 4 | 610.663361 | 613.600663 | | 8 | 649.347376 | 869.693358 | | 16 | 1176.402781 | 2487.335286 | | 32 | 2345.594618 | 5155.747515 | | 64 | 4697.556045 | 11170.627031 | the test shows that sec mem is ok-ish up to the number of available cores, and when the sec mem lock gets contended, performance goes down rapidly. Tested on Apple M4 Pro.

Pauli	50e0402c22	sec_mem: add note about the minimum size parameter. ... Add a note indicating that the minimum size parameter to CRYPTO_secure_malloc_init() should be small.

Pauli	34b167625a	Make minimum size for secure memory a size_t. ... The minimum size argument to CRYPTO_secure_malloc_init() was an int but ought to be a size_t since it is a size. From an API perspective, this is a change. However, the minimum size is verified as being a positive power of two and it will typically be a small constant.

Dr. Matthias St. Pierre	fc5ecaddd0	man: harmonize the various formulations in the HISTORY sections ... While stereotyped repetitions are frowned upon in literature, they serve a useful purpose in manual pages, because it is easier for the user to find certain information if it is always presented in the same way. For that reason, this commit harmonizes the varying formulations in the HISTORY section about which functions, flags, etc. were added in which OpenSSL version. It also attempts to make the pod files more grep friendly by avoiding to insert line breaks between the symbol names and the corresponding version number in which they were introduced (wherever possible). Some punctuation and typographical errors were fixed on the way. Reviewed-by: Tim Hudson <tjh@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/7854)	2018-12-15 22:27:26 +01:00
